Is moissanite a real diamond?

Moissanite is not a diamond—it's a distinct gemstone with its own unique properties. Originally discovered in a meteor crater in 1893, today's moissanite is lab-created. It actually has more brilliance and fire than diamonds due to its higher refractive index (2.65 vs 2.42), while being nearly as hard (9.25 vs 10 on the Mohs scale).

Will moissanite pass a diamond tester?

Standard diamond testers measure thermal conductivity, and moissanite often passes these tests because both stones conduct heat similarly. Advanced testers that measure electrical conductivity can distinguish between them. We believe in transparency—our moissanite is beautiful in its own right.

Does moissanite get cloudy over time?

No, moissanite does not get cloudy, lose its sparkle, or change color over time. It's a stable, durable gemstone that maintains its brilliance for a lifetime with proper care. Unlike some simulants, moissanite is highly resistant to scratching, heat, and everyday chemicals.

Can I wear moissanite jewelry every day?

Absolutely! With a hardness of 9.25 on the Mohs scale (second only to diamond), moissanite is extremely durable and perfect for everyday wear, including engagement rings. We recommend removing jewelry during activities involving harsh chemicals or extreme impact.

What is your return policy?

We offer a 90-day worry-free return policy. If you're not 100% satisfied with your purchase, you can return it within 90 days for a full refund. All our moissanite jewelry also comes with a lifetime warranty covering manufacturing defects and stone clouding.

Moissanite Solitaire Pavé Huggie Earrings | 0.5ct DEW

About This Product

A four-prong round brilliant moissanite sits at the front of each hinged huggie, lifted just clear of the band so light pours through the crown while a row of pavé accents trails along the hoop to either side. The solitaire-with-pavé pairing keeps a clean focal stone the eye lands on first, then a flicker of micro-set sparkle that follows the curve of your lobe. Each centre is a 0.5ct DEW round measuring 5.0mm, cut to DEF colourless, VVS clarity, so the white reads icy and untinted against the bright metal. Moissanite's 2.65 refractive index throws noticeably more fire than a diamond's 2.42, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale the facets stay crisp through daily wear. The hoops measure 16.5mm across on a slim 1.7-2.0mm band, and the hinged snap-bar closure tucks behind the lobe so they hug close and stay put through work, the gym and sleep. Built in 925 sterling silver with a bright white-rhodium finish; rose and yellow gold plating options carry the same stone layout. Styling note: at 16.5mm these read as an everyday huggie rather than a statement hoop, so they sit happily as a second or third piercing or as a low-profile solo pair under glasses and earbuds. The prong-set centre gives them just enough lift to wear from desk to dinner without snagging. A genuine upgrade on a plain huggie when you want the suggestion of a stud and a hoop at once. Specs: 0.5ct DEW (5.0mm) round moissanite centre per earring, DEF/VVS, pavé hoop, 16.5mm diameter, 925 sterling silver, white-rhodium plating, hinged closure.
